She explains every step clearly and uses a lot of visual teaching methods. Very friendly and funny as well. One of the best.
Brenda Tinning is the best math teacher at edmonds
Great teacher, loved being in the class.Homework was easy and was due at the end of the week. Got a good grade out of it, wished I could have gotten her in a higher math as well.
This teacher is really awesome, I really understand what she teach about, always give clear example and explain about homework until we understand about that. I wish that I can take another higher math class next time. Really RECOMMEND this teacher
This teacher is one of the greatest math teachers I've ever had! I honestly struggled a lot with math before and hated it. However, she taught it so well, friendly, and always willing to answer questions and take the time. If you come upon her during registration, take her course!
Tinning is talkative.She tends to ramble and her curriculum is tight so there's not much room to stop and ask many questions. She is bright and funny, but if you struggle with math this class might be a bit hard because her explanations are sometimes not thorough. Be sure to read the text and make use of the Math Tutor Center.
Best math Teacher ever!! Very helpful, if you want to do well make sure to complete the daily HW every day! Awesome Teacher she actually made Math Fun!!!!
This class was kinda interesting but very hard to learn. She's a fair grader. She doesn't explain the material very well "because its so boring" which makes it hard for students to learn or even want to come to class. Projects are fun and even though its hard, make sure you come to class everyday. Would not take this teachers classes again.
What a wonderful teacher Brenda is! She is absolutely lovely, and listening to her go on about the subject at hand, and explain things is just a complete delight. She is very kind, helpful, and understanding. The class is online, but you're still required to show up, but from the one on one with her she seems a little lenient. Definitely 5 stars!
Great teacher , but she should keep her religious views to herself. She passed out her God explanation, and her church info out right before finals.
Although quite eccentric and gets a little too excited about the material sometimes, she's actually a good instructor, I highly recommend her if you have to take MATH 90. She's very understanding, always answers questions, and even reviews problems with you after quizzes and tests to help you understand the material. Recommended for sure!
Its just good, take it.
Brenda is a great teacher. At least she teach students by using her own explanation and provide examples. Her tests and quizzes are straightforward. Besides she grades fairly.
She is the best Math teacher ever!!!
Good and nice teacher at Edcc. The best!!
She is an awesome teacher. She really understand the materials of Statistics. She gives quizzes and tests which is straightforward and her grades fairly. I recommend you to take her class.
Best of the best!! great teacher ever!! such wonderful person. I learned a lot in her class. Nice person. I highly recommended her.
She is the most patient teacher. She always smiles in class. Although I find her explanation can be confusing, but the material is easy. Webassign hws are a lot but not hard. Quizzes have no surprise. Final Exam is easy even though harder than quizzes. I really love Brenda !
She's a great teacher who provides excellent help! Aslong as you show up, turn in activities and do work, she will not fail you!
Great teacher as she is strikingly gorgeous. Loves to teach math and will always be there to help you. Glad I got her this quarter. She has a great sense of humor too. Be sure to get her!
very good teacher and so helpful. take her class!
She is hilariousgreat sense of humor. Loves math, and if a teacher loves her job it makes a huge difference. Very nice and always helpful!
All of the quizzes and tests are made by Brenda and are on paper, which makes it nice to get partial credit on problems. All of the homework is on Pearson mystatlab. She is very nice and super helpful. Her grading is fair and she does give chances to do a retake on one test. This teacher truly cares about her students.
SHE IS THE BEST TEACHER! Love her lectures and she truly cares about her students!
The most fabulous and hilarious professor I ever had. She teaches statistics very well and I enjoyed having her :)
One of the best math teachers I've ever had. She is very caring and makes her lectures understandable. Tests are pretty easy and similar to the homework/lectures in class. Funny, nice, and overall 5/5!!
She's awesome! Eccentric, enthusiastic, fair and thorough. I wish the class would move a little more slowly, but stats is kind of a fast ball no matter who you take it with. One of my favorite instructors at EdCC for sure!
Brenda is very happy and energetic which helps during a night class. she is picky when it come to grading tests make sure you write all details.
The only math class I have ever received an A in! Ms. Tinning is friendly and willing to help if you are ever confused. She rounds the homework and extra credit percentages to 100% if they are 95% or higher. Additionally, she is generous with partial credit on the tests.
Best stats teacher ever! I love statistics because of her! She makes class so much :) I really love Brenda! She makes adorable songs that helps you learn the material
The class has to cover a lot of material, so by the nature of the course a lot is covered each day. She takes attendance at the beginning and after each break. She uses a LOT of handouts and works them out in each class. Do the homework! It will be the difference between maybe passing and getting an A! She's very good about responding to email fast
She is friendly and a funny teacher, I really like her and willing to take her class again if I have chance.
Brenda Tinning is a wonderful instructor. This course covers a lot of material and she goes through it quickly, so make sure you are paying attention and following along. She hands out notes for each chapter and you fill in the blanks. It's super easy and helpful, just do the homework. She really cares about the students and is very nice/friendly.
Brenda has such sweet and fun personality. She is a great lecturer and an energetic instructor who truly cares about and understand her students. She has very organized and easy-to-follow instructions for grading and for class as a whole. She is a great instructor to take. :)
Brenda is an amazing instructor! I'm not the best at math but she is awesome at explaining concepts while staying humorous and entertaining. She is a quick grader and always encourages students to email her if they are stuck on a problem. Homework is all online. We had three tests, five quizzes, and a cumulative final. Highly, highly recommended!
My grade is not that good at Statistic class because I cant really follow cause stats is really challenging for me but Im really giving my thumbs up to this teacher because she is absolutely kind and care with me, she always care and try to give extra credits to make the student pass the class and she also teach really well in class��
It was a very well prepared class. The professor showed proceeded to the lesson by showing examples and showed what kind of calculator's formula needed. She always answered students' questions, and e-mail responses were very quick. If you master the homework and example problems from the professor, you can get good grades in this class.
she replies to emails fast and really responsible and caring.
Doesnt give any feedback on anything. Not really accessible outside of class. Throws things at you without any practice assignments. I don't recommend her! If anyone does, be prepared to fail! She's terrible!
I'm not the best at math, but she is there to support you if you need anything. You can email her, and she'll respond. She is one of my kindest, and determined teachers I have ever met. She really supports her students so don't be afraid to ask for help or talk to her. Take her if you struggle with math!
I love her so much that if she teaches higher Stats classes, I will take them all. She is really funny, lovely, and nice. However, a lot of homework is ahead, so be ready for it. Besides Stats stuff, she is a thoughtful prof whom you want to consult.
Shes nice but thats the only thing about her. Im a 4.0 student and good at math but I dont think Ill get a 3.0 or higher in this class. Shes extremely quiz and test heavy, THERES a quiz or test every week. She moves so fast that if you look away for one second, you miss everything. Totally hard for no reason, Im working my butt off.
One of the best math professors. I thought that I wouldn't do good in this class because I haven't taken a math class in so long but if you come everyday an keep up with the class you'll be fine. She answers all your questions and helps you comprehend the material. There is a quiz about every other week, total of 5 quizzes. Fast and easy grader.
I love her class so much. She takes care of all the students. The first few days in class were a little bit confusing cause the lecture was too hard to understand clearly, so you would be disappointed a little bit. As long as you can go, the paper slides were clearly, just follow that and do homework, I got 4.0 easy. A lot of extra credits.
Brenda is the most caring and wonderful professor I have ever met. I personally hate math but even I would take her stats class again. She was fun and helpful and her test are not to stressful because she always gives a detailed study guide. The homework load is average but she easy to complete because her lectures are amazing. Take this class!
I love Brenda so much. Math isn't my favorite but the way she teaches made Stats so so so easy for me to understand. She is extremely nice and wants you to excel. I had an evening class with her but she was always super energetic at every class meeting, it really helped make it more enjoyable and raised my attention and interest levels. Take her!
MATH146 is THE HARDEST class I've taken. I'm not a math person so taking stats online during COVID-19 in 1qrtr was challenging. Stats is FAST PACED, there is hw everyday + 1-2 quizzes per week (can retake your quiz up to 3x until deadline). Tinning answers emails super quick but everything else is independent; all hw is done online through statlab
This is an independent class, so you are responsible for how you prepare and study. If you practice a lot you will be successfu on the exams. This class can vary in the future as this was taken during the Covid-19 pandemic. Lots of homework but straightforward, 1-2 quizzes a week. Extra Credit for taking the exam early too! Pretty straightforward.
Easy, independent learning. Watch lecture videos and have powerpoint slides to look at. Hw, quizzes, and exams are on mystatlab. You can retake quizzes up to 3 times. ALL the questions from the real exam come from the practice exam hw. As long as you do that practice exam hw and study that then you are good. Finished this class 3 weeks early!
I dont know how she gets a lot of good reviews. Heavy homework, quiz and test. I dont recommend her.
Thankfully we were able to use stat crunch for everything otherwise this class would be a bit more difficult. Basically an easy A class. Definitely recommend everyone to take her as your professor.
Independent stat class. There are two major tests that are each worth 25% of your grade, but as long as you do all the assignments and watch the lectures she provides, you'll for sure get a 4.0 grade (above 95%). I'm not a math person at all and haven't taken math since Algebra 2 in high school but I was able to get 99%.
Brenda is a great professor i really enjoyed her class she gave me from her time to work on the homework, she is defiantly one of the best professors i ever had at Edmonds college. I highly recommend taking her class, she is very caring about students
It was online class and graded automatically by computer. Professor was very nice but the class was so time consuming and difficult.
Professor Tinning was great overall. The class was self taught with video modules/ slides, and quizzes were pulled from homework. Material itself was easy to learn, and mainly involved learning vocab/ inputting numbers into online calc known as Statcrunch. Class had two proctored exams. All questions were pulled off of previous review assignments.
Brenda Tinning is so inconsiderate of your other classes as she assigns homework EVERY. SINGLE. DAY, even weekends. Lecture videos are hard to follow and I honestly learned nothing from her class. I would never take her course again, and it was a waste of my money. I do not recommend her to anyone unless all your other courses are easy.
Bad professor assigns homework too often and asks you to work ahead while pummeling hours' worth of assignments on you. The quizzes are open notes so relatively easy, but her lectures are boring and none of the content is engaging so it's so easy to lose focus. There are many different things you have to memorize for the tests, but there's just two
This is a more self-paced class, with homework every day and one to three quizzes per week. Get ready to read and watch videos. There are also two tests, both on honor lock. However, the teacher is very friendly and fast at responding to your emails.
I can not speak highly enough of this teacher! I had attempted to take Statistics once before and didn't make it past the first week. Mrs. Tinning is a spectacular teacher with extensive knowledge and extreme patience. She made Statistics enjoyable and I would without a doubt take her class all over again. If available TAKE HER CLASS!! THANK YOU!!
Brenda's class was mostly structured around Pearson's mystatlab, which were all the homework, quizzes, and tests were. Though, her lectures and homework are in canvas which are very helpful because if you are ever stuck, there are homework help videos. Brenda also replied back to us very quickly as well when we have concerns. Overall, it was great.
Professor is very good at communicating. She puts out announcements and reminders frequently. Class was very easy. There is no final but 2 tests. Quite long ones but if you do the study guide you will be fine. Statcrunch is used, confusing at first but you will get the hang of it quickly. Good lectures too and handouts for additional studying.
I recommend taking Brenda's course! She is very organized, provides quality material and lectures, and has great communication! In addition, she was very supportive of my learning goals. I recommend learning Statcrunch from the beginning and printing/saving homework assignments and studying them because it will be helpful on quizzes and tests.
Ms.Tinning was very responsive when I reached out for help and would offer resources for clarification. There were things that came up during the quarter such as illness & websites being down & she was very understanding & accommodating. Yes there is quite a bit of homework however that is made very clear in the beginning of the class.
I am so grateful that professor's class has helped me get rid of my fear of math. The professor's classes were very helpful to me. She had clear grading criteria. Professor showed students how to use the calculator directly using the screen in front of the classroom. I frequently visited her office hours, and she really cares every student!
She replies emails quickly and gives elaborate responses. She really wants us to get the best score possible.
I can confidently say that she is an exceptional instructor who is truly dedicated to her student's success. I particularly appreciated her responsiveness to my questions and concerns, and her positive feedback and encouragement served as a source of motivation, inspiring me to strive for excellence in the course.
Class is sooo boring, you just sit there while she reads the information off her packet and you're expected to just copy her word for word . Most boring class ive ever taken, she is nice and responsive but It was so much homework and it was so boring. I don know about her online , but in person do not take her. it was the most boring class.
Mrs. Tinning is an exceptional educator with deep knowledge and passion for teaching. She creates an engaging and inclusive learning environment. Her dedication to her student's success is evident through her approachability. Learning from Mrs.Tinning is an honor, and her impact on personal growth and education is highly recommended.
Brenda is a warm and spirited instructor. Her enthusiasm made class enjoyable, kept me engaged, and eased my anxiety. She provides clear expectations, tools and resources to help students succeed, and explains the material well. She cares about her students' success and offers many ways to reach out to her with questions. I highly recommend her.
the attendance wan't mandatory even though it was a hybrid class I did everything online, you can choose if you want to come to the lectures or not. It took me 13-15 hours a week to work on everything. Brenda responds to emails quickly and is willing to help you showing respect and understanding. Brenda is a great instuctor!
She tends to give us these really long and challenging homework assignments, and the deadlines she sets are just crazy! And don't even get me started on her tests. They're like marathons, so lengthy and overwhelming. It feels like too much. The pressure to complete everything on time can be so stressful and creates anxiety for students.
Ms. Brenda is an incredible teacher and I had a great experience in her class. The class structure is very straight forward and set up to make you succeed in the class. If you pay attention and follow along the class work, you will get an A:)
Brenda Tinning is the best professor I have ever seen in my student life. I respect her as much as my mom. I can't believe a professor can be that much caring and nice. Her teaching style is more than amazing.
I would love to take her class again. She's caring and wants you to succeed.
She was one of the best professors I have ever had. While the assignments are not necessarily difficult, the do take about an hour or more to complete, and there are assignments due every day of the week, except Saturday. These assignments are time consuming, but it is relatively easy to do well on them, as you get multiple chances at each problem.
This class is very exhausting and moves too fast. They expect you to learn a whole chapter in a week, and there is homework six days a week. There is also one quiz every week. The professor is very nice, but her lectures feel like a waste of time because she goes through the material too quickly for you to understand the material. Very tedious.
I took her Math 97 class in my first quarter at Edmonds and she was so caring about my grades when I was failing. I am taking her math 146 for my last quarter at Edmonds and she is the best!!! love you Brenda Tinning!
She is amazing. I got a bad grade because I was not doing what I was supposed to do. It was my fault that I did not get an A. She is so caring, and I must say communication is the key. Do not hesitate to reach her with any concerns. I would take her any class any day.
Brenda's a caring, educated, high energy teacher. Math 146 was a simple and moderately difficult course (10hr/week). Included well-explained online homework assignments and quizzes that both allowed 3 attempts each, and 2 online proctored exams with problems nearly identical to the ones found in the study guides. The grading criteria is very clear.
Brenda is amazing, super caring and friendly. She one of the best teachers I've honestly ever had, take MATH 146 with her. The class is hybrid but all material is online. You get pretty 3 tries on the homework and quizzes, and the proctored test questions are all gotten from a practice homework assignment that she'll give you.
I love her! She's a good teacher! Caring and willing to help you out if you are willing to put in the effort.
I love Tinning! She's so kind and very understanding. She does give a lot of homework but it really helps with understanding the content and if you don't do it you will struggle. I asked her a couple of times to give me full credit on a quiz question and she did. She's very helpful and will email you back quickly through canvas. Lots of studying.
Prof wants you to pass! If you score below 75% on a quiz, she has you retake it and if you're close, she'll let you redo a couple questions in class to boost your grade. You can retake one test per quarter, and she gives tons of late passes (even more if you ask). I truly wish she taught every math class she's the best teacher I've ever had!
she is incredible, she is so kind and cares about each and every one of her students succeeding. she gives a million late passes and will help you individually if you have a question. she makes everything so easy to understand 1000000/100 recommend!
